  • Patent number: 12226867
    Abstract: A method for setting more precisely a position and/or an orientation of a device head in a measuring environment by a distance measuring device which has a number of M, M?1, distance measuring sensors and which is connected to the device head. A control device is communicatively connected to the distance measuring device and an on-board sensor device. The position and/or the orientation of the device head is determined by the on-board sensor device and the position and/or the orientation of the device head determined by the on-board sensor device is set more precisely by the control device.

  • Publication number: 20240181625
    Abstract: A method of localizing a mobile construction robot on a construction site, wherein environment data of the construction site is captured, wherein a pose of the mobile robot is inferred using the environment data disclosed, wherein the method comprises a step of semantic segmentation, wherein a semantic classifier having an updatable semantic model classifies the environment data into at least two semantic classes, wherein the semantic model is updated at least once. Furthermore, the invention concerns a mobile construction robot system and a computer program product. The invention provides solutions for a robust and precise localization of the mobile construction robot.
